I'm a PhD research student and staff member in the philosophy department at the University of Edinburgh and a member of the Philosophy, Psychology, and Informatics Group. My research focuses primarily on the philosophy of cognitive science and the philosophy of psychology. In my doctoral thesis, I examine the role of epistemic emotions in cognition and develop a theory of the required cognitive architecture. Particularly, I investigate whether and to what degree epistemic emotions are interoceptive and whether epistemic emotions play a role in the development, both ontogenetically and phylogenetically, of conceptual and metarepresentational capacities.
